Anyone planning to register for for St. Andrews Junior School?

St Andrew's Junior :-

if you're a Phase 2B Parent Volunteer and stay less than 2km, should be quite safe. Because balloting only occurred for those staying beyond 2 km.
Refer to Green boxes, for past 3 years' trend (from 2010 to 2012) :-

Does this mean that even if you have done your PV with the school, still need to ballot for those staying more that 2 km?
Sorry need to ask as I'm a newbie to all this and very worried for my son.

PV doesnt guarantee anything. It just let you register under 2B.


If number of pupil register exceed, then ballot is required.

Sometimes, PV get to register but dun even get chance to ballot…

Thanks for all your replies. The best situation will be Ai Tong as first choice and Kuo Chuan Pri School as backup. I stand better chance if I am 1km to Ai Tong but will be more than 2km to KCPS. How to do this in a win win way??? If I move now 1km to Ai Tong if I don’t get balloted to do PV? Then I will have to bet on getting a letter from Hokkien Huay Kuan which is also not guaranteed!


Ok I am free to uproot to any part of Singapore. If u were me, which decent co-ed school will you choose?

All MOE schools are decent schools.

If you stay more than 1km from KCPS, I think it is a dangerous strategy to use Ai Tong as your first choice. Assuming you can do PV for either Ai Tong or KCPS, chances are you might be balloted out of Phase 2B or Phase 2C for Ai Tong (choy, but the historical stats will give you an idea of the competition for Ai Tong). Whereas if you PV for KCPS, you are likely to get a place in Phase 2B. If you treat KCPS as your backup in Phase 2C, you will still be subject to balloting in Phase 2C in the best case, or worse, you may not even get a chance to ballot in Phase 2C since you stay more than 1km away.

Sorry i should rephrase it as "popular" school. I am not so academic driven but i hope the school builds self confidence and character building.

Really appreciate your reassurance chief and phtthp, fingers crossed there will be no major changes at moe or a freak surge in demand for places at oln for 2016 reg. cheers!
